APRIL 14-14 +1.01.(3 Unit play 0-1 -3.00)( 2 Unit 2-2 +0.86)

Review,
The problem with Totals at anytime IMO is regardless of how you arrive at your selection, the price you pay is more luck than judgement. Personally I cannot go under -105 so what may be solid thinking bet can be made into a lottery by the books view. In the NFL, there is an excuse of not many games so the vig doesnt come into play as much, in Basketball one could argue a bigger cushion points wise whereas Baseball, one lucky run or mistake can be fatal. Add in the amount of games etc and for me, there are better pastures, so Totals are going while I'm ahead.

The Run-line is a tougher cookie to give up insomuch that the PLUS price always appeals and the nearly syndrome surfaces when you only win by one. Up to now I have played them when the vig on the M/L was steeper than my own Minus vig view, however, the number of 1 run games is enough to warrent re-evaluating the border prices giving up 1 1/2 runs, but I'm not going to hold my Breath. The +1 1/2 runs at minus vig is out of the question for me.

I am happy with the allocation of 2 and 3 units plays and as I said in an earlier post, I'm more than happy being £2000 up. I will see how things progress without Totals and Run-lines but at no time will 20 Units be squandered back, the plug will be pulled on the POPEYE ruthlessly

I hope you all have a successful June with your betting :103631605

I won't clutter up the thread all month so just post this once - good luck sir! You and that bum Insiders are having a hell of a season, glad to see someone can win at this crap.

Thanks Pat, it never ceases to amaze me how easy the game is when your in the zone, and how soul destroyingly hard it is when the worm turns.

Interesting that no sooner than reading Insiders giving up the season as he considers it a joke, I lose a 2 unit play after being 6 runs up. Maybe I'm on the same path.

bol today ...

I have just realized the same thing that your review is about. In my young record of picks, I'm 2-0 (+4.0 Units) when avoiding the runline and 0-3 (-5.0 Units) when that positive vig tempts me to play the runline. Add that to a 1-7 (-9.75 Units) when playing the over/under (games decided by 1-2 point swings) and I've learned to also "try" to avoid over/unders.

ain't going to make a card until tomorrow morning so we'll see how I "resist" the runline and over/under temptation.

Treading Water at the moment and selections are coming few and far between. Hopefully this is because of all the short priced Favorites and not that The Books are settling into feel good factor.

Make or break time for Popeye as its been making a horrible rumbling sound for Five Weeks now. I've taken an odd course of action and changed the High grade Oil to Baby Oil hoping for more smoother picks, so i'll wait and see.

No bet again Today so thats June finished. Only 18 Bets which was caused by mismatches and The Books getting sharper I presume, only time will tell. On to July :drink:
